If there's one thing Tesla CEO Elon Musk is known for, it's jumping into the comments on Twitter (TWTR) -- especially when someone is criticizing him.
In his latest social media appearance, Musk popped up after The Washington Post shared a story that insinuates that Musk's changes to Twitter after his purchase of the social media platform in October 2022 were specifically to cater to his own desires as a user.

The story mentions that Twitter made algorithmic changes that resulted in users seeing Musk's tweets first, which Platformer originally reported on Feb. 14, after a tweet made by President Joe Biden about the Super Bowl outperformed Musk's own tweets.
"Biden’s tweet, in which he said he would be supporting his wife in rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles, generated nearly 29 million impressions. Musk, who also tweeted his support for the Eagles, generated a little more than 9.1 million impressions before deleting the tweet in apparent frustration," Platformer writes.
Musk tweeted his own rebuttal to the reporting in the early morning hours of Feb. 17, saying the information was false and attributing the boosting of his own tweets to a bug.
But a few hours later, Musk was still hovering close to his keyboard watching the world respond to the accusations, which is when he replied to The Washington Post's shared story, calling the article "false."
Folks in the comments of Musk's original post blaming a big were clearly not convinced by the explanation.
Some also asked questions that Musk left unanswered in his own explanation.
Musk, however, was able to see the bright side of it all -- or so he says.
